Dad's Ramblings -- Patience, My Son, Patience

"So they asked Him, saying, 'Teacher, but when will all these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?' ..... 'By your patience possess your souls....Watch therefore and pray always.....' "
 
                                                   Luke 21:7, 19, 36a
 
A hot topic among many evangelicals is "signs of the times" that point to Jesus' soon return. And we certainly need to be aware and discern the times we live in. Jesus did give a list of prophetic signs to look for. But more important, it seems to me, are Jesus' admonitions to just live every day in patient expectation. Living in anticipation of His return is more than just knowledge of prophecy. He may return today, or He may return in a thousand years. Patience, watching, and praying are the key words.
 
Today's Thought: We patiently watch and pray for Jesus' return.
 
Have a patient, watchful day. Love you.
